According to official calculations, you're incorrect:

http://www.statcan.gc.ca/tables-tabl...hys08b-eng.htm

- Calgary and Edmonton are nearly identical on average during it's warmest month (Calgary is slightly warmer)
- Calgary is much warmer on average during it's coldest month (av. High/Low of -2.8/-15.1 for Calgary, -8.0/-19.1 for Edmonton)
- Calgary is, on average, always warmer than Edmonton. Calgary is comparable temperature wise to Montreal and Ottawa (albeit with a dry prairie climate, which makes the summers cooler) while Edmonton is comparable to Regina and Winnipeg.
